Pope Sees New Springtime
Of His'tory for, Mankind
VATICAN CITY (NC)-Pope Pius XII told more than
000 young Italians packed into St. Peter's Square here
that "all the world is reawakening" 'and that mankind is on
the threshold of a new "springtime of history."
He said that humanity is ing and a time of ~pring.""
"d k '
"All the world IS reawaken­
comlllg out of a .ar Wlll- ing," the Pontiff said. "Material

"

spring, but also the springtime
of history is not far off, he said,
and beyond that there lies "a
bcilliant summer" for mankind.
The Pope traced the passage
of. the "dark winter," which was
made dark, he said, by "errors
which have disturbed so many
minds; dark because of the mud
which has contaminated so many
hearts; dark because of dish<lnesty . . . because of badly
oriented people and broken
femilies; because of devastated
Ilations; because of a world torn
apart by the horrors of war."
World Reawakening
"But God" he continued "who
has permitted the dark ~inter
and has readied a brilliant summer, obliges us all to live and
work in a climate of reawaken-

moving always toward better
and more widely distributed
welfare. He who considers the
ascending curve of scientific
progress' notes that it follows
almost a type of chain reaction."
"Also in the life and activity
of the spirit," he said, "there
are evident signs of a reawaken­
ing. Man will be ever more
free from material labor and
fl'om servile work. Automation
is transforming the greater part
of human labor into intellectual
activity, while extraordinary
technical progress is making the
diffusion of culture among men
always rtIore possible and easier.

noyer stated. "The Anchor covers items
and provides instructions that cannot be
given with such completeness from the
pulpit on Sunday."
Father Cournoyer's' complete parish
coverage plan-which sets an example for
every other pastor in the diocese-is even
more ambitious when it is noted that the
Ocean Grove parish fell short last year.
Most annual subscriptions to The
Anchor expire in two weeks. If you have
not already renewed your subscription,
drop your renewal in the collection basket
at Mass next Sunday.
Use any type envelope and mark it The
Anchor.

Fairhaven Catholic

Exposes Red Plot

"If I had gone to church I wouldn't be here today."
With t~ese words, Armando Penha, 44, of Fairhaven summed up the
worst part of an eight-year ordeal as an FBI counterspy ~or the Communist
party.'
'
COIQmunist ; activity in­

volved giving up many

things, including a well­

paying job, Mr.' Penha said.

But the thing that he missed the

most was the regular practice

of his Catholic ~eligion.

A plot to assassinate Louis

F~ancis Budenz, former editor

of the defunct c'ommunist Daily

Worker newspaper who returned

to the Catholic' faith, was dis­

closed in testimony by Mr. Pen­

'ha before a special session of the
U. S. House of Representatives

committee on un-American ac­
tivities here.
.

School Bomb Plot

The plot was formulated by a

communist group in New Bed­

ford after it was announced that

Mr. Budenz was scheduled to

lecture at a New Bedford high

school. Mr. Penha did not dis­

close the date of the assassina­

tion plot.

Against Queries

On Religion

DENVER (NC)-Former

President Harry S. Truman

said here that ques'tions

about the religion of a can­

didate for the U. S. presidency

should be "baJ,3red."

Asked by a reporter, "Do you

think a Catholic could be elected

president?", Mr. Truman replied:

"I don't' like to make any state­

ment in regard to religion in

politics in this great country of

ours."

Later he added: "1£ you'll read

the first ten amendments, you'll

find out that they (questions

about 'a candidate's. religion)

ought to be barred."
Mr. Truman implied that reli­
gious principles are essential to
any American president. He
said:
.
"I think any man elected to
the presidency will have enough
religion to believe in the 20th
chapter of Exodus and the fifth,
sixth and seventh chapters of
'Matthew." He later included
the fifth chapter of Deuterono­
my.
"Now you read 'em and you'll
find out what' they are," Mr.
Truman said with a grin. (They
contain the Ten Commandments
and the SermOn on the Mount.)

Penha was revealed last week as an FBI counterspy inves­
tigating communism. He was forbidden to attend Mass
by the Reds while in the underground.

He pointed out that the prac­
tice is almost universally con­
demned by every great mono­
theistic 'religion and that'. the
Christian Churches are united
"in, the, strength of tbeir con­
demnation." The Archbishop 01
Canterbury, Primate of the An-:

the debate condemned the prac­
tice-demanding that it be made
u
a legal offence or else strictly
controlled by registration. Lord
Pakenham added that the Amer­

matized it as adultery" that
Protestants in Sweden;" France
and the Netherlands have also
disapproved, as does the Jewish

LONDON (NC)-A prominent
Catholic peer has told the House
of Lords that Britain must re­
ject artificial insemination as a
"loathsome • • • brainwave of
~ Beelzebub."
Lord
Pakenham,
socialist,
father of eight, outstanding
Catholic spokesman in Parlia­
ment participated in a debate in
. the upper. chamber climaxing a
national controversy on the sub­
ject. The controversy arose
when Lord Wheatley in the Scot'­
tish High Court in Edinburgh
ruled that a woman who had a
child through artificial insem­
ination by donor without her
husband's consent was ~ot com­
mitting adultery.
Religious and other national
leaders and· the press imme­
diately joined in a furious argu­
ment for and against "test tube
babie!!," and Parliament subse-·
quently decided to ventilate the
need for some· official ruling in
addition to the' solitary legal
opinion on one aspect of it given
by Lord Wheatley., The issue
fell to the House of Lords, whose
members include' ~he leading
bishops of the Church of Eng­
land, 'the High Court judge8,

Holy Cross Sister Urges Audience
Of College Students to Think

By H ie'ra rchy
COLUMBUS (NC) -The

KANSAS CITY (NC) -One
voice of our civilization is not
doomful, defeated. One voice, at
least is not strident with crisis,.
crackling with terminology of
war and space.
Though diffident, the voice was
for the listeners authoritative.
It was that of Sister Mary Mad­
eleva, of the Sisters of Holy
Cross, for 21 years president of
S1. M;lrY's College, Notre Dame,
Ind. She delivered a Visiting
Scholar lecture in Rockhurst
College- here.
"Ten per cent of college stud­
ents think. Twenty-five per cent
of graduate students think. I'm
going to start a kind of apostolate
of thinking. I~ seems very much
more important to me that we

greatest possession."
Poets and Poetry
Sister Madeleva, herself a
poet of distinction, next consid­
ered poets and poetry. She con­
teneded:
"It isn't an abnormal thing to
love poetry, and to write it even,.
to want to write it. It isn't an
abnormal thing to love philoso­
phy and to want-to study it, and
to want to understand it. These
are only the normal appetites
for truth that we all have."
"We haven't any great poetry
today to boast about," she said,
'~but the best of what is being
written today is being written,
I think, by religious poets, and
even by Religious themselves."
On the Body
Of the human bo~y, she re­
marked:
"We are all familiar with the
fact that our bodies are described
as miserable and sinful, and the
occasion of a great many dis­
orders, and we blame them for
all sorts of inordinate appetites
and desires and .uncontrolled.

feelings.

"I think the soul has more to

answer for than our bodies," Sis- ­

ter Madeleva said, "and will
have eventually. Besides that, 1
think God is on the side of the
bodies, too. He has shown many
preferences for bodies. He has
given them to us, has created.
them. He accepted a body Him­
self, through the natural meall8
of birth.
"He has given us the sacra­
ments. The angels do not re­
ceive the sacraments, The entire
sacramental system was given
to us by God to minister to our
souls through the avenues of the
body, and if we didn't have·
bOdies we couldn't receive the
sacr:lments. And God has prom­
ised that our bodies shall be
restored at the end of time and
will be glorified and immortal.
. Now that is quite a good deal for
these miserable bodies."

Ohio declared here.
The heads of the six dioceses
in Ohio .in a statement released
by the Ohio Catholic Welfare
Conference, took their stand be­

.a-called right-to-work laws as

A well I)leased audience en­
the Coyle High School
StUdent Theater production' af
Hennan Wouk's "Caine Mutiny
Court'-Martial."
The play, a two-act drama,
concerns martial proceedings
a'gainst a young naval officer
who relieved his captain of com­
mahd of the U.S.S. Caine during
the height of a typhoon. The
basis for the young officer'.
action was that the captain was
psychopathic during the crisis
and was directing the ship and
its· crew to certain death and
destruction.
The odds and naval tradition'
are against the young officer,
but during the trial itself the
weakness in the character of ,the
captain is slowly revealed by the'
testim~my of the various wit­
nesses.
The disturbed Captain Qq.~g
waa brilliantly portrayed by
George 'Costa, while Thomaa
Hanford did a fine job as the
accused Lieut. Stephen Maryk.
.John Kennedy acted the part. of
the prosecuting attorney Jack
Challe; and the defense attorne,.,
Barney Greenwald, was played
by Stephen Hewey.
,,
',Together these two magnifi­

as' Judge Blakely with the ut­
most stateliness.

Roger' Poyant.

public devotion to the Blessed
Mother, Father John P; Lan­

Students of the foul' local
Catholic colleges, and members
of the 23 Newman Clubs in the
archdiocese, will again organize
and present Mary's Hour, as the,.
have done for the past 10 years.
Mary's Hour consists of reci­
tation of the rosary a brief
,sermon and benediction. A rep­
tation of the rosary, a brief
formed by hundreds of elemen­
tary and high school children.
In the past 10 years attendance
at a single Mary's Hour' has
been as high as 100,000. The de­
votion was originated in 1948 by
Catholic college students here.
Il was first held in Hollywood
Bowl, but was transferred to
the Coliseum because of the size
of the congregation.

of Los Angeles, presides at

QUEBEC (NC)-New indul.
gences have been granted the
Shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre
by the Holy See on the occasion
of its 300th anniversary this
year.
_
Father
Eugene
Lefebvre,
C.SS.R.,director of pilgrimages
for the shrine, announced that
pilgrims may gain a plenary in­
dulgence when visiting the
shrine on six days during the
year, or when making group
pilgrimages.
Those pilgrims who visit the
shrine on the Feast of St. Anne,
July 26; on Assumption Day,
, August 15; the Feast of S1; Jo­
achim, August 16; the Nativity
of Mary, September 8;.Presenta­
tion of Mary, November 21, 01'
on the' Immaculate Conception,
December 8, and who fulfill the
usual condition will be granted
plenary indulgences.
- Three or more 'persons making
a pilgrimage to the North Amer­
ican shrine any time during this
tercentenary year ·will be grant­
ed a plenary indulgence.

Several years ago a prominent American industrialist,
since deceased, delivered a very interesting and humorous
speech on the harm that can be done by the careless and
emotional use of slogans in the field of economics and labor
relations. He was thinking
of words like socialism, responsible unions in the United
Slates.
.
statism, collectivism, com­
There was a time, of course,
munism, and the "welfare when it had -to struggle. almost
state."

The catchy title of this remark­
able s pee c h,
Danger-Words
at Work! came
to' mind a few
weeks ago dur­
ing a conversa­
tion I had with
the editor of a
European Cath­
olic publication
about the strike
which had just
been called by
the In tel' n a­
tional Lad i e s
Garment Workers Union in the
New York.Pennsylvania area.,;,
This strike, which has sin~~
been settled very amicably" was
the first' one called by the
ILGWiU. in approximately ~,
years:' This fact in itseJf 'is'
prima facie evidence, (which car;l,
be amply supplemented, by
studying the record) that lab.or
relations in the ladies garment'
industry are 'much better than'
average and that the union which
represents the majority of ,tl'\e,
workers in the industry is an ex­
ceptionally mature organization
with' a highly developed sense of
social' responsibility.
Misinformation
Unfortunately, however, that
isn't the way the ILGWU had
been pictured to our distin­
guished friend from Europe. He
had been told by people who
should have known better that
the ILGWU is a "radical" and
irresponsible organization con­
trolled by socialists and commu­
nists and that the strike which
w~s the'l in process was moraily
ini:lefenslb!e.
.
This isa classical example of
the harm that can be done by
the careless and emotional (not
to'say\malicious) use of slogans
in the field of labor relations~'
Fortunately, our European vi!l­
itor took'the trouble to check his
first impressions of the ILGWU
wnich were based' on misinfor­
mation given him by respectable
people of considerable standing
in their community.
'Otherwise he might well have
reported in the influential pub­
lication which he edits in his
homeland that the ILGWU is a
revolutionary organization dedi­
cated to the abolition of private
property, etc., etc.
But he is not the gullible type.
Without being warned by any­
body, he instinctively sensed the
danger refe,rred to in the title of
the above mentioned speech-the
danger thato is always lurking
around the premises when
"words are at work" in the con­
troversial field of labor rela­
tions.

violently for the rights of its
members, but today, in the
words of The New York Times'
ace labor reporter, A. H. Raskin,
it is "the one stable factor ... in
what is probably the most vola­
tile, unpredictable and chaotic
sector of' the American econ­
omy."
According'to Mr. Raskin, "The
manufacturers make no secret'
of their dependence on the union
as the single force capable of
enforcing uniform labor stand­
'ards in this last outpost of free­
'wheeling business competition.

(1) The ILGWU, far from
being a communist or pro-com­
munist organization, was one of
the first unions in the United
States to eliminate the commu­
nists from its own ranks and one
of the first to sound the alarm
against the threat of communism
in other parts of the world.
Indeed, the story of this
union's vigorous and very effec­
tive crusade against communism
both at home and 'abroad has
been told so often and is so
widely known that one hesitates
even to mention it again for
fear of being dismissed as an
insufferable bore.

TOKYO (NC)-Tokyo's "ma­

has died.
The best loved resident of
Ari-no-machi (Ant Village), on
the Sumida river, succumbed to

Daughter of a professor at

For eight years she shared the
work of this group of scaveng­

She lived within their tumble­

juries, and instructing their
children.

During a visit with some rela­

Brother Zenno was the former

By Jack Kineavy

The second game of the D~ocesan finals between Santo

tonight at CYO Hall, Fall River. The championship sel'ies

Santo Christos gained the finals
after sweeping
a two-game set
from St. Jo­
seph's of Taun­
ton. The Fall
River contin­
gent ,really
earned its spurs
in the wind-up
of that series
when it posted
a 67-61 win
with an under­
manned squad. Christ'os will be
without the services of ace Tom
Arruda who left last week for
Sanford, Fla., and a career in
pro baseball.
Our Lady of the Assumption
defeated Holy Name, 65-49, last
week in a replay of their pro­
tested game and thereby gained
the finals. A key man on the
OLOA squad is better known
for his exploits on" the, cinders.
He is John Silveira, State 1000­
~ard champion from New, Bed­
ford High.

Not since the '52-'53 'season
when St. Anthony of the Desert
won the crown, has the Diocesan
title been won by a Fall River
team. Santo Christos will strive
to rectify that situation and be­
come the seventh Fall River
titlist in the competition that
goes back to 1939. The high
scoring OLOA unit has other
designs., however. It shapes up
as a great series.

Reds Show Guilt
By long Silence
NEW YORK (NC) - Henry
Cabot Lodge, U. S. Ambassador
to the United Nations, said here
that if Hungary's Red rulers do
not answer inquiries regarding
the whereabouts of political
prisoners "they will actually
acknowledge
themselves
as
guilty of the worst things which
have been said against them'" :
Mr. Lodge was ~mmenting on
the fact that he has received no
reply to an inquiry submitted
,Feb. 11 to ,the Hungarian mission
,:to t~e ,UN. He said the inquinr
asked about the "presen't <;i'rcum:'
stances of' certain prolt\inent
Hungarians who disappeared
from public life since the Soviet
Union's armed overthrow of the
Hungarian government in 1956."
Mr. Lodge said receipt of the
inquiry had ,been acknowledged
Feb. 17 by the Hungarian rep­
rentative to the UN, who said
he would forward it to Budapest.
No reply has yet been received,
he said, "yet people all over the
world - • • demand answers
about these Hungarians whose
fate appareritly is now being de-­
cided in secret."

CAPE CANAVERAL (NC)­
A medal of St. Christopher,
patron of,travelers, was in the
second stage of the Navy's Van­
guar.d rocket which shot' the
satellite into outer space.
This was disclosed after the

successful firing of the rocket.
The medal was attached to the
gyroscopic guidanc~ system in
the second of the three-stage
Vanguard.
This section burned out at an
altitude of about 140' miles, but
it 'carried the "brains" of the

NEW YORK - Human

rights will never be safe­
guarded by an "exercise in
semantics" but by a- real­
ization of man's relationship to '!
God, Auxiliary ,Bishop James H.
Griffiths of New York told the
National Council of Cathc;llic
Women here.
Bishop Griffiths said "it is an
incontrovertible fact that there
is no permanent foundation for
true, inviolable human rights in
a view 'of life which denies the
existence of God the Creator and
Sustainer.."
, ,'Supernatural Bases
He defined a human right as
"a moral and inviolable power of
having something, of doing
something, 'or, of demanding
something from others." He
stressed - that by "inviolable
power" he meant one that "may,
not ,be interfered with by
others."
Recalling that the U.N. Char­
ter declares' as one of its pur­
'poses "to reaffirm faith 'in -the
dignity and worth of the human
person" Bishop Griffiths said
Dot en'ough persons ask "why"
-in'regard to this statement.
He declared that some "mod­
ern thinkers and world leaders
lIuffering from intellectual myo- .
pia ... *. ~, will conjure up the
most fantastic formulae and
theorems rather than admit the
supernatural bases of man's per­
sonal dignity."
God Himself
"Human. rights will never be
impregnably safeguarded' by
mere affirmations about the dig­
nity of ' human personality," the
Bishop continued. "This is
merely an exercise in semantics.
Human rights can only be ade­
quately safeguarded, securely
founded and based if men realize
why the dignity of the human
person must be respected-and
that is man's nature created by
God a~d destined for an eternal
rendezvous with Qivinity."·
"It is God's plan eternal that
man keep this rendezvous," the
Bishop stated, "and in His wis­
dom ... * * God must confer on
him the means to satisfy the
hunger for God which He placed
in man's soul at the moment .of
creation."
'
"And in this sense," the
Bishop concluded, "we may ac­
curately state that the ultimate
or remote basis of human rights
is God Himself."

Religion Study
. ANN ARBOR (NC) - A state
university has no, right to ig­
nore the fact of its students'
religious commitments, a' Jesuit
theologian said at the University
of Michigan.
Father John Courtney Mur­
ray, S.J., declared "your college
and university student is acad­
emically empowered to grow in
all its discussions of knowledge
---except the dimension of reli­
gious knowledge.'"
Father Murray, professor of
theology at Woodstock College,
a Jesuit seminary in Maryland,
was a speaker in a series en­
titled "Religion and the State
University," commemorating the
centennial of organized student
religious activity at the univers­
ity.
Vital Force _

Paul C. Kauper, professor of
law at the university, asserted
a ,university which deliberately
excludes all courses with a posi­
tive content is forcing itself to
become a "telling witness" that
religioll is irrelevant to the pro­
cess of cultivating the mind and
spirit.
Prof. Kauper said a university
~, which fails to deal with religion
"as a vitrol force in the life and
history of man • • • . may well
take the position that it is der~­
lict to the high purpose for
which it was created."
